In ivmte: Instrumental Variables: Extrapolation by Marginal Treatment Effects

Description

This function returns a numerically integrable function corresponding to a single splines basis function. It was not implemented because it was slower than using the function from the splines2 package.

Usage

altDefSplinesBasis(splineslist, j, l, v = 1)

Arguments

splineslist	a list of splines commands and names of variables that interact with the splines. This is generated using the command removeSplines.
j	the index for the spline for which to generate the basis functions.
l	the index for the basis.
v	a constant that multiplies the spline basis.

Value

a vectorized function corresponding to a single splines basis function that can be numerically integrated.
